I have a collection of original Moorcroft vases & lamps that I wish to
sell.  Apart from ebay, what is the market for Moorcroft, all in mint
condition, from the 1960's, and where should one go to get the best
value from the sale of these items.

jc-ga,

Early Moorcroft from the 1930's and so can fetch a pretty penny.  The
1960's were the beginning of some tough times for the company, and
these pieces are generally not quite as valuable as either the earlier
or some of the more recent limited-editions.

Still, they ain't cheap, either.  

A typical price range for a smallish 1960's vase can be seen here:

I can steer you towards some good printed reference sources that
discuss Moorcroft, and give more examples similar to the above.

As to where to go to sell your pieces, that's a tough call to make. 
While I can perhaps offer some suggestions, I wouldn't feel
comfortable saying so-and-so is clearly the best place to go.

Let me know your thoughts on what makes the most sense on how to proceed.

Thanks,
